If we do not maintain justice, justice will not maintain us.
~ Francis Bacon

Character Types: Investigators whose jurisdiction includes the city. Probably a homicide detective, CSI, or Coroner.

Year: 06 Winter 1937

Concept: You find yourself among the slow grinding machine of justice in the city. Inside a system awash in veteran incompetence and naive conceit. The vigilant tend to be new enough to be ineffectual and the cops who can get things done tend to keep their heads down and asses covered. For you good-cop bad-cop isn’t a TV interrogation technique it’s a daily struggle to find your place in a corrupt world.

Character Creation: Standard Adventurous from SilCore 3.1. 30 Character Points and 50 Skill points. Character must have the legal authority to conduct criminal investigations. As a group your characters should probably belong to the same beat by geography (like the inner city the west-side) or special unit (for example homicide, gang task force, or Vice).

Required Skills: Notice and Investigation.

Major Languages: I’m not sure what the common language is but I like this note from the previous campaign. Players should know Human Anglic, but having appropriate languages from your culture is a good idea. Equatorial Hispanic and Indo-Arabic are common in Khyr ad-Din.
